Question
QUESTION: i have a 1992 nissan bluebird ,when i am on the high way going up a hill ,i cant go up in high speed, berore that i used go up in high speed. what cause that ?

ANSWER: Dwanion,

I would perform a complete tuneup.  Plugs, wires, cap and rotor.  Fuel filter and air filter too.  After that you should be fine.  If not check the fuel pressure to make sure it is good and check to make sure the converter, if equipped, is not blocking up.

QUESTION: i complete tuneup,how you check the fuel pressure and converter,if equipped,is blocking up.

ANSWER: Dawanion,

The fuel pressure is checked with a fuel pressure gauge on teh fuel rail on the engine.  The converter can be tested by disconnecting it from the exhaust and driving the car.  If you drive it and the power is back replace the converter.  You can rent the fuel pressure gauge from a parts store.

There are four devices at the top and back of the engine in the top photo on the right.  These are the fuel injectors and the rail that attaches them all together has a schrader valve on it like where you put in air for your tires.  This is where you screw the fuel pressure gauge on.  There is pressure so watch your eyes as not to spray fuel when connecting or disconnecting.
